Admin You guys should make it to where people can give and take away admin. I have a group and I made 2 other people admin because, whenever i'm not on Kik something happens. When I came back almost everyone was admin. Now when someone joins my group, they would get removed and no one would confess to who did it.

Same notification When I swipe away the notification at the top of my screen indicating a new msg minutes later the same notification reappears again. I don't want to read the msg, I'm trying to ignore it. But in order to make the notification stop appearing I must read the msg. Fix it please.

It won't let me text anymore. It just says s. And I tried to go away and come back but it still said s.. And I've tried deleting it and doing it again but still doesn't work. And I tried on a different device but still s.

camera wont load kik is an amazing app. but i can not connect to my camera. kik keeps saying "cant connect to camera close other apps using the camera" and even though i have ended everything else it still does not let me record anything. please fix this and ill rate 5 stars

I really like this app but I wish I could change my user name and if we forget our username of we change it we can just log in from the one name at the top and our password because I dnt wnt to loose all my kik friends but I don't like my username but otherwise I really like the app

Deletes Conversations Too Easily I love the app and because I don't have a phone, I use this to text all the time. It just annoys me that whenever something such as getting a new phone or reinstalling the app every single one of my conversations get deleted and their's no way to get them back. I would recommend having Kik save your messages to where you can retrieve them and text from ANY phones with ALL your saved messages. Of course like anything you can delete the message from any devise. Thank you!!!

Pretty good but not as good as the iOS version There's a couple bugs with the image search not working when press in a pic and pictures people send me do not allow me to press on it and zoom! Also the app looks dated and needs some more material design like Google Hangouts and Textra + KIK please give us a night mode the app just hurts my eyes

Gsp_Jones Hey, I haven't been on this in a while, anyone new up for a convo? I'm a uni student, 18 years old, 6'4" & from London. My username's Gsp_Jones Anyone from the UK & who can actually carry a conversation is a plus 👍 I won't reply if you don't have a profile picture of yourself and if you ask my age or where i'm from, it just shows you didn't read this. Speak soon ✌

Awesome This is the best and most used app on my phone, though I do have a recommendation for the next update. You should make it so we can see who's read a message in the group chats we have created. It would help with a lot of confusion

Better Video was a good touch, wish you guys had more chat colors and ways to save messages when you log in and out, And you should allow us to pic themes for our kik cause the green and white is kinda ugly

Constant spam There is no effort made to reduce the number of spam accounts on the service. I've been message by five different spam accounts in a single night. I have Kik to talk to my friends, not some program that is going to try to sign me up for some porn website.

ok, but... everytime i turn my phone on i can use it for half an hour or else it automatically restarts. please, try to jave just one notification that says, one unread conversation, not a million notifications.

It's not working Everytime I go to send a picture it says "failed to load, try again later." which I wait but it still doesn't work. The only solution I have is to turn off my phone and then turn it back on, then It will only send a couple pics then it stops again. PLEASE FIX IT

Okay. Wtf? The app freezes if I try to send pictures. Then there are times where if I try to send a message to one person, it won't send for at least an hour . It isn't signal issues because the app lets me send messages to other people at that sane time and they go through. Please fix.

Its good Its preety good app for chatting... But now i'm started to hate this app.... Because in kik points i won 3 smileys.. N each time i tap on collect button they showed me no wifi connection . Lol i was sitting just beside the router n i was chatting still it showed me no wifi connection... So when i closed the kik app n reopened it, it showed that u will have ur next spin in 20hours.... This happened with me 3 times....

Address book optional I like it, but when I got my new phone it told me about everyone in my address book and in turn others found me that were in my address book. I don't want just anyone to be able to find me. There should be an option to hide from anyone seeing me. I like that new chats are given the option to chat or ignore. But even before that, I want to be invisible unless I give someone my kik info.

Please help I actually love this app however i have disabled contacts from unknown people and I still get bugged by them when I look at my settings its ben enabled then I dosable again then a few days later same stuff, I have reset my kik I have changed passwords etc still does it please fix I do not want sexual pics of random people or people trying to sext me thank you!

***HELP!!!!*** I use my Kik daily instead of using text. Everything was working fine with it until about a month ago. I no longer receive a notification when I have been messaged. I've done everything to figure out the issue. I have gone into my application settings & it isn't that. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling. I've asked friends if they are experiencing the same thing & it looks like I'm the only one. Please help resolve this issue, as I stated I predominantly use this as my main source of communication.

Best Messaging App Ever Cool App. Never had a problem with crashing, easy to find friends, and it allows me to text even when out of my service area (wifi). I just want the emojis to be colored because i have an older phone that has black and white emojis. 💤🔸⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

REGISTRATION ISSUE I couldn't register for a new account both on my Android (Samsung) and Apple (iPod Touch) devices. I have updated the app already. Whenever I register, all the info needed were checked/ticked. But as soon as I click 'Next,' without even loading, a message pops out saying that something went wrong, give it another whirl. Please fix this problem very soon so I can enjoy an overrated kik.

The camera stopped working I've been using kik for years and have never had problems. As a messaging app it's the best. Was excited when video was added, but not it says can't connect to camera, that another app is using it. Please fix. I love that you can do videos.

Notifications /camera When I want to record a video it says it isn't working and tells me to close any apps using the camera when the only app running is kik, please fix. Other problem is that when I swipe away the notification later on it comes back telling me the same thing and it's annoying, please fix that as well.

User: Muffensacrifice Good app! One problem is that some messages don't deliver and actually takes minutes even hours for it to deliver. Overall its a good app. Im 18/m/straight anyone 16-20 Idc what gender as long as ur not a creep. NOTHING DIRTY. Just looking for someone to chat with. I like rock/metal music, musician, and I love Street Fighter. Anyone here a fan of street fighter? If you have PS3 also hit me up!

Telegram is a messaging app with a focus on speed and security. It’s super-fast, simple, secure and free.

Telegram seamlessly syncs across all of your devices and can be used on desktops, tablets and phones alike. You can send an unlimited amount of messages, photos, videos and files of any type (.doc, .zip, .pdf, etc.). Telegram groups have up to 200 people and you can send broadcasts to up to 100 contacts at a time. Be sure to check our website for a list of Telegram apps for all platforms.

We built Telegram to make messaging speedy and safe again, without the usual caveats.

Why Switch to Telegram?

FAST: Telegram is the fastest messaging app on the market because it uses a distributed infrastructure with data centers positioned around the globe to connect users to the closest possible server.

SECURE: We made it our mission to provide the best security among mass messengers. Telegram heavily encrypts all your data with time-tested algorithms.

CLOUD STORAGE: Telegram seamlessly syncs across all your devices, so you can always securely access your data. Your message history is stored for free in the Telegram cloud. Never lose your data again!

GROUP CHAT & SHARING: With Telegram, you can form large group chats of up to 200 members, send broadcasts to up to 100 contacts at a time, quickly share large videos, documents (.doc, .ppt, .zip, etc.), and send an unlimited amount of photos to your friends.

RELIABLE: Built to deliver your messages in the minimum bytes possible, Telegram is the most reliable messaging system ever made. It works even on the weakest mobile connections.

100% FREE & NO ADS: Telegram is free and will always be free. We are not going to sell ads or introduce subscription fees.

PRIVACY: We take your privacy seriously and will never give third parties access to your data.

For those interested in maximum privacy, Telegram offers Secret Chats. Secret Chat messages can be programmed to self-destruct automatically from both participating devices. This way you can send all types of disappearing content — messages, photos, videos and even files. Secret Chats use end-to-end encryption to ensure that a message can only be read by its intended recipient.

SUPPORT: For real-time support, please go to Settings in Telegram and select “Ask a Question” to send a message directly to our support volunteers. You can also email us at support@telegram.org.
